Natural Language Processing (NLP)
AI techniques for understanding, interpreting, and generating human language.
Definition
Natural Language Processing (NLP) is a branch of artificial intelligence focused on enabling computers to understand, interpret, and generate human language. NLP encompasses tasks like text classification, sentiment analysis, entity recognition, machine translation, and question answering. Modern NLP relies heavily on transformer architectures and large language models, which have dramatically improved performance across all language tasks.
